"I'm extremely excited to join the Red Bull KTM Factory Racing organization," Sexton said. "Not only is the equipment top-notch, but the team person - nel and their drive to win is, too. From the first time I walked in those doors, Roger [DeCoster], Ian [Harrison], the team, and the entire KTM company have been nothing but accommodating. I think we have a bright future together and I'm eager to get to work."
